April 12, 2024 The Knoll Open Space & Roads End State Park

It was a perfect day for a walk in the woods. Mark Elliott led 14 birders including a family of 5 from Seattle. The sounds of spring filled the air and plants were shooting up everywhere. All participants were enjoying the beautiful Open Space.
